The gun used on Mr. Schaffer's New Zealand hunt was T/C Encore 209X50 that he sent to me for accurizing. When I received the gun, Mr. Schaffer told me that the best it would do was 3" at 100 yards, and that was on a "good day"! After I got my hands on it, did my work on it and shipped it back, I got a phone call from Mr. Schaffer, and he told me that his gun now shot under an inch at 100 yards, and most all groups were one-ragged-hole! He now had confidence in this gun to take it hunting, and these are his results

If you don't mind my asking, do you recall what changes you made to his firearm that fixed the issues? Just curious.

Beautiful pictures of you work. I notice you do a lot of bull barrels and heavy contours. It looks like a lot of your rifles are meant to be shot from prone or "bean field" rifles. Do you do much work on lighter profile rifles like a mountain rifle?

A very strange mode of failure for laminated wood indeed.
The only way to manage that would be to have all the laminate layer grain running in the same direction, not crosswise to each other.
Or its a .900 tyranosuarus..............

Looking at the pic I thought that the stock had taken a hit on the side, but enlarging the pic I can see it’s the tip of a screw...probably to hold it in one piece for a pic. It would be interesting to see more pics of the broken stock.
